Editorial Reviews:
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: A true visionary Comment: I found this book interesting and wonder why I never read it before now. As an adult, I find found Jules Verne to be an amazing author - way ahead of his time. This book made me want to read more of Verne. Customer Rating: Summary: don't buy it Comment: It's just a remake-get at the library, the real thing or support a current author... Customer Rating: Summary: Great aid to the real story. Comment: We are reading the unabridged version to the kids and this is an indespensible aid for understanding the descriptive story. The pictures are great and very accurate to the descriptions. Historical notes put the story in context of when it was written (i.e. marvels at an electric engine, extant knowledge of sea life, predictions about underwater scuba gear). The kids can follow along in this while I read and the text is very close. I heartily recommend it as a reading aid. Customer Rating: Summary: Volume changes, two tapes not understandable Comment: I was hoping to introduce my teens to Jules Verne while traveling; so, I ordered the audio cassettes. However, on most of the tapes, the volume would suddenly go down to be almost inaudible. The quality of two of the cassettes was so bad that only about 1/4 of the tape could be understood. Customer Rating: Summary: A wonderful sea story. Comment: What can I say about this book that hasn't already been said? There's a reason why it's a classic and why Jules Verne is still relevant after over one hundred years, he wrote some darn good stories! Every school child should read this book.
